I want to hear about your favorite books that include heists as a major element. Bonus points if it's set in a fantasy, sci-fi, or non-contemporary setting. (Basically I want something like Gentleman Bastards that's not just rereading Gentleman Bastards)

Both of the major plots of Iron Gold are heist plots. It's the fourth in the Red Rising Series, but you can theoretically pick it up as the first one since it's the start of the second trilogy. Its a soft sci-fi, but not starwars levels of soft. The first trilogy is also fantastic, Golden Son might be the best scifi book Ive read.
